Everyone knows the Houston Rockets don’t have a chance to take down the mighty Golden State Warriors in their Western Conference Quarterfinals series, even if Stephen Curry doesn’t play another game. However, you would think members of the team would be thrilled with winning a game or two, right? Wrong. After James Harden‘s game-winner on Thursday night, Dwight Howard and other players on Houston’s bench looked like they had seen a ghost. It almost seems like Howard had a vacation planned for when he thought the Rockets would be eliminated, and prolonging the series ruined it all.
